The Knoll Perron Pillo sofa has been designed in collaboration between the brand and Willo Perron that prioritizes an ultra-relaxed form that looks good enough to jump in. The sofa is described by the brand as looking and acting like a basket of pillows that prioritizes modular elements that can be switch up according to consumer preferences. The sofa comes in two depth options and embraces a sense of childlike wonder that combats against minimalist aesthetics in favor of realistic, comfort-focused ones.
Senior Vice President of Design at Knoll Jonathan Olivares spoke on the Knoll Perron Pillo sofa saying, "Willo practices in the worlds of music, fashion and popular culture, but he also develops his furniture for the needs of the interiors he works on. It’s this balance of culture and practicality that I would like to foster at Knoll today.”
